If you want to test out NBCUniversal's streaming service Peacock, you'll be asking yourself 'is there a Peacock free trial?', so you can try out the video platform before you put money down for a subscription.
There's so much good content that we've had to make a separate list of the best shows on Peacock including classics like The Office and Cheers, current shows like This Is Us and Law & Order: SVU, as well as Peacock Originals, Universal movies on Peacock and lots of live sports including the Premier League, rugby, Sunday Night Football and more.
But unless you find a great streaming deal, Peacock will cost you money... right? Well, yes, thanks to the lack of a free trial.
Is there a Peacock free trial?
Peacock used to offer a 7-day free trial, so you could test out its offerings before committing to the monthly or annual plan, but in 2021 it was removed.
That's a growing trend in streaming services with Disney Plus and Netflix also removing such offerings.
So now, to watch anything on Peacock, you'll have to subscribe.
- Peacock Premium: this is the cheapest of Peacock's all-access plans because for the lower cost $4.99 per month, $49.99 a year you have to sit through ads.
- Peacock Premium Plus: if you can't bear the adverts and want to get rid of them, then you'll need to go for the top plan — Premium Plus costs $9.99 a month or $99.99 annually.
Peacock also used to have a free plan, but in early 2023, that was removed.
What does Peacock Premium or Peacock Premium Plus include?
As a Peacock Premium or Peacock Premium Plus subscriber, you'll be able to access plenty more content, including Peacock Originals like Girls5eva and Rutherford Falls. You'll also get next-day access to current NBC/Bravo hits like Below Deck and Real Housewives.
Plus you can start streaming live sports and events including Premier League soccer, golf and Sunday Night Football. Peacock was also recently the exclusive US home of the Eurovision Song Contest.
You can watch on bags of different devices from computers, Roku, Amazon Fire TV, Apple TV, Samsung Smart TV, Chromecast, LG Smart TVs, as well as Xbox and PlayStation games consoles. Premium Plus subscribers can also download and watch selected titles offline.
